Appendix 8 List of Habitats and Species Appendix 8 List of Habitats and Species The attached list includes habitats and species relevant to Burnley Borough. It indicates those which are from Section 41 of the Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act 2006. Also included are habitats and species from the Lancashire Biodiversity Action Plan. There is also a list of summering birds, the end of this document, derived from Lancashire & Cheshire Fauna Society/British Trust for Ornithology Breeding Bird Atlas Survey of Lancashire and North Merseyside, 2008-2011. Note: The Natural Environment and Rural Communities (NERC) Act came into force on 1st Oct 2006. Section 41 (S41) of the Act requires the Secretary of State to publish a list of habitats and species which are of principal importance for the conservation of biodiversity in England. The list has been drawn up in consultation with Natural England, as required by the Act. The S41 list is used to guide decision-makers such as public bodies, including local and regional authorities, in implementing their duty under section 40 of the Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act 2006, to have regard to the conservation of biodiversity in England, when carrying out their normal functions.

E-mail: [email protected] [Kulfan, M. 2012. Structure of lepidopterocenoses on oaks Quercus dalechampii and Q. cerris in Central Europe and estimation of the most important species. Munis Entomology & Zoology, 7 (2): 732-741] ABSTRACT: On the basis of lepidopterous larvae a total of 96 species on Quercus dalechampii and 58 species on Q. cerris were recorded in 10 study plots of Malé Karpaty and Trnavská pahorkatina hills. The families Geometridae, Noctuidae and Tortricidae encompassed the highest number of found species. The most recorded species belonged to the trophic group of generalists. On the basis of total abundance of lepidopterous larvae found on Q. dalechampii from all the study plots the most abundant species was evidently Operophtera brumata. The most abundant species on Q. cerris was Cyclophora ruficiliaria. Based on estimated oak leaf area consumed by a larva it is shown that Lymantria dispar was the most important leaf-chewing species of both Q. dalechampii and Q. cerris. KEY WORDS: Slovakia, Quercus dalechampii, Q. cerris, the most important species. About 300 Lepidoptera species are known to damage the assimilation tissue of oaks in Central Europe (Patočka, 1954, 1980; Patočka et al.1999; Reiprich, 2001). Lepidoptera larvae are shown to be the most important group of oak defoliators (Patočka et al., 1962, 1999).

  • Populus Nigra Network
    IN SITU CONSERVATION 79 In situ conservation Poplars and biodiversity PeterȱRotachȱ Department of Forest Sciences, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zürich, Switzerland Floodplain forests, the natural habitat of indigenous black poplar (Populus nigra L.), are among the most diverse ecosystems in Europe (Gepp et al. 1985). In Austria, for example, it was estimated that at least 12 000 species of animals and plants regularly inhabit the floodplains of the Danube (Gepp et al. 1985). According to Gerken (1988) more than 1000 species of beetles, most of the indigenous amphibians, 400–500 species of large butterflies (more than one third of all existing species) and between 150 and 200 species of birds occur in different floodplain habitats. Table 1 shows the numbers of invertebrates that have been recorded in the floodplains of the Rhine. Table 1. Number of species of invertebrates in the floodplains of the Rhine, according to Tittizer and Krebs (1996) Order Number of species Mollusca (land snails) >60 Mollusca (water snails and mussels) 30–40 Odonata (dragonflies) 50 Coleoptera (beetles) >1000 Lepidoptera (butterflies) 1000 Arachnida (spiders) >100 Many of the species are highly specialized and depend on alluvial habitats. For example, 29% of the amphibians, 27% of the carabids, 20% of the reptiles and 12% of the dragonfly species in Switzerland occur uniquely or primarily in alluvial habitats (Walter et al. 1998). Undisturbed floodplain ecosystems are not only very rich in species, but also provide a unique or very important habitat for numerous threatened species and thus play a crucial role for species conservation. For insects, mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians in Switzerland, for example, 17.5% of extinct species, 27% of those that are nearly extinct, 19% of highly threatened species and 11% of threatened species live exclusively, or primarily, in alluvial habitats (Walter et al.

A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains,

  • Lepidoptera of a Raised Bog and Adjacent Forest in Lithuania
    Eur. J. Entomol. 101: 63–67, 2004 ISSN 1210-5759 Lepidoptera of a raised bog and adjacent forest in Lithuania DALIUS DAPKUS Department of Zoology, Vilnius Pedagogical University, Studentų 39, LT–2004 Vilnius, Lithuania; e-mail: [email protected] Key words. Lepidoptera, tyrphobiontic and tyrphophilous species, communities, raised bog, wet forest, Lithuania Abstract. Studies on nocturnal Lepidoptera were carried out on the Laukėnai raised bog and the adjacent wet forest in 2001. Species composition and abundance were evaluated and compared. The species richness was much higher in the forest than at the bog. The core of each lepidopteran community was composed of 22 species with an abundance of higher than 1.0% of the total catch. Tyrpho- philous Hypenodes humidalis (22.0% of all individuals) and Nola aerugula (13.0%) were the dominant species in the raised bog community, while tyrphoneutral Pelosia muscerda (13.6%) and Eilema griseola (8.3%) were the most abundant species at the forest site. Five tyrphobiotic and nine tyrphophilous species made up 43.4% of the total catch on the bog, and three and seven species, respectively, at the forest site, where they made up 9.2% of all individuals. 59% of lepidopteran species recorded on the bog and 36% at the forest site were represented by less than five individuals. The species compositions of these communities showed a weak similarity. Habitat preferences of the tyrphobiontic and tyrphophilous species and dispersal of some of the species between the habi- tats are discussed. INTRODUCTION (1996). Ecological terminology is that of Mikkola & Spitzer (1983), Spitzer & Jaroš (1993), Spitzer (1994): tyrphobiontic The insect fauna of isolated raised bogs in Europe is species are species that are strongly associated with peat bogs, unique in having a considerable portion of relict boreal while tyrphophilous taxa are more abundant on bogs than in and subarctic species (Mikkola & Spitzer, 1983; Spitzer adjacent habitats.

Status of UK priority species: relative abundance Technical background document, 2020 NB this paper should be read together with 4b Status of UK Priority Species; distribution which presents a companion statistic based on time series on frequency of occurrence (distribution) of priority species. 1. Introduction The adjustments to the UK biodiversity indicators set as a result of the adoption of the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity (including the Aichi Targets) at the 10th Conference of Parties of the Convention on Biological Diversity mean there is a need to report progress against Aichi Target 12: Target 12: By 2020 the extinction of known threatened species has been prevented and their conservation status, particularly of those most in decline, has been improved and sustained. Previously, the UK biodiversity indicator for threatened species used lead partner status assessments on the status of priority species from 3-yearly UK Biodiversity Action Plan (UK BAP) reporting rounds. As a result of the devolution of biodiversity strategies to the UK's 4 nations, there is no longer reporting at the UK level of the status of species previously listed by the BAP process. This paper presents a robust indicator of the status of threatened species in the UK, with species identified as conservation priorities being taken as a proxy for threatened species.
